As usual the gathering was a large one, something now a days synonymous with Modi but the most striking thing was the variety of people present in this rally. Apart from BJP volunteers, a large number of MBAs, technocrats, businessmen & industrialists were also present in huge numbers.
One such example was Abhishek Sharma, accountant by proffession. He had come all the way from Raniganj to see and listen to "Modi ji". When BJP's PM candidate, Nrendra Modi started with "Amar Shonar Bangla", our accountant cheered heartily. "There is just one person who can lead the country towards progress - Narendra Modi. He is passionate about development and carries the expectations of the youth. He is very inspiring.", he said.
His sentiments were echoed by many young Indians who were present there."No, I am not here to support BJP. I was eager to hear him speak and see how he carries himself in the run-up to the elections. I am quite pleased with what I saw. Modi deserves a chance," said Rajesh Jain, a Kolkata-based entrepreneur. his fellow businessmen, Vivek Jain commented that only a leader of Modi's stature can turn the tide in favour of investment in West Bengal. "He is pro-active, intelligent and understands business. The country needs a leader like him now. Bengal will benefit if he becomes prime minister," he said.
Even industry biggies like Sajjan Bhajanka, chairman of Century Plyboards, had come to listen to Modi. It was noteworthy as presence of big industrialists in political rallies is not a regular feature. "It was an intelligent speech. He kept the options open for a future alliance with Mamata Banerjee by talking about the financial help and moratorium on loan," Bhajanka commented.
White collared executive Vineet agrawal took a day off to lend his ears to Modi's talks on Bengal. He was not disappointed. "It was nice to see that he was looking for support from Bengal," he observed.
Though there was also a section of visitors who could not hold it till the end. Some people started to leave the venue within 10 minutes of Modi's speech.
